Bug description:[PATCH] add ldap_modify_batch function

Description:
------------
Hi,

motivated by the impossibility of performing an Active Directory password
change (not reset), which requires a simultaneous REMOVE and ADD operation
on the unicodePwd attribute of a user, I have set out to write a function
named ldap_modify_batch that would allow this.

The test script demonstrates the API of this function. I'll admit that this
API (especially the array-of-arrays-of-arrays part) is a bit weird and I'll
gladly accept tips on how to streamline it. There is also a (more complete
but also more contrived) example in the function body itself.

Test script:
---------------
<?php

function adifyPw($pw)
{
	$quoted = '"' . $pw . '"';
	$utf16d = iconv("UTF-8", "UTF-16LE", $quoted);
	return $utf16d;
}

$curPwd = adifyPw("Tr0ub4dor&3");
$newPwd = adifyPw("correct horse battery staple");

$conn = ldap_connect("ldaps://dc.ad.example.com/");
ldap_bind($conn, "john@ad.example.com", "Tr0ub4dor&3");
$mods = array(
	array(
		"attrib" => "unicodePwd",
		"modtype" => LDAP_MODIFY_BATCH_REMOVE,
		"values" => array($curPwd)
	),
	array(
		"attrib" => "unicodePwd",
		"modtype" => LDAP_MODIFY_BATCH_ADD,
		"values" => array($newPwd)
	)
);
ldap_modify_batch($conn, "cn=John
Smith,ou=Accounting,dc=ad,dc=example,dc=com", $mods);
ldap_close($conn);

?>
